New Handmade Jewelry, Clay Pals, Magnets, and My Books Now in the Ink & Stitches’ Shop!
It’s taken me weeks, but I now have some exciting new handmade products to share with you in the Ink & Stitches Shop! I’ve been inspired by some of the amazing creatives I follow to try my hand at making my own jewelry, clay pets and magnets, and to finally put up signed copies of my TALES OF WHIMSY books that will be shipped directly from me here in the Pacific Northwest.
Let’s have a look-see at what’s
new in the shop!Â
Earrings
These are my original illustrations printed on shrink plastic that after the shrink magic is done, the white back is handpainted the main color you see on the front, then sealed with resin before the fixings are put in. You have options for fixings for the posts: stainless steel (nickel and lead free), gold colored, or plastic. (Note: if you choose the plastic post, you can let me know in the comments if you’d like the remaining fixings to be the stainless steel or gold colored)
Tabby cat earrings come in a couple of different colors at this point with five different color choices for the yarn ball post!Â
Shooting Star dangly earrings are one of my favorites. With their delicate chains and vibrant stars, how could they not be?
Having a teacher friend as I do, I just had to make a pair of happy apples with their little caterpillar pals along for the ride! These would be a great gift for that favorite teacher during Teacher Appreciation Week, or just because you think they’re cute!
With a son as into the solar system as mine has always been since he was 18 months old, I couldn’t help but make an Earth and his pal, Luna.Â
Here we have the Russian Gray cat earrings with the blue yarn ball posts. Again these can be traded out for any of the five yarn ball post options in the image above.Â
I grew up playing games with my brother and married a gamer as well. How could I not make one of the favorite handheld portable game systems? This design is based on the Gameboy from back in the 80s. Gotta love that 80s vibe!
Â
Necklaces
So far, I have one design for a necklace, the Flying Happy Mail. This one is a fun little guy who’s ready to come along for an adventure!
Â
Clay Magnets
Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, so I wanted to create some fun, handmade, clay, heart-shaped magnets for the holiday that play on a parent and their kids. You can choose your parent color, and then you will get two random child heart magnets for FREE! The magnets are extremely heavy-duty so they’ll have no problem holding up photos and keepsakes on your fridge.
To mirror the set of dangly gamer earrings above, I also hand-sculpted and painted some gamer magnets as well. You choose one of the three! These are also all sealed with UV Resin for extra durability and are extremely heavy-duty magnets.Â
Â
Desk Pets/Paintbrush Holder
Check out the new handmade/painted desk pets that can also double as a paintbrush/Apple pencil/Chopsticks holder! There will be more of these to come, but for now, these three are up for grabs in the shop!
Â
Signed Books
Lastly, in this shop update, you can now buy signed copies of my TALES OF WHIMSY books directly from me! I will tuck in a bookmark and freebie sticker with every purchase!Â
There you have it! All 12 new listings in the shop! I’m so pleased with how everything turned out and I look forward to creating new designs within the new realm of jewelry and clay.Â
In the meantime, I started writing Book 3 in the TALES OF WHIMSY series titled, THE WICKED WANTER. Finally, the words are flowing out and her story is moving forward. I can’t wait to see where her journey takes her next!
